梅西已告知巴薩將離隊

Leo Messi has reportedly informed FC Barcelona that he wants to leave the club immediately despite having a 700 million euro release clause in his contract.

據多家媒體報道，梅西已通知巴塞羅那俱樂部，希望立刻離開這家球隊，儘管梅西的合約中包含的買斷條款解約金爲7億歐元（約合人民幣57.26億元）。

The news was broken on Tuesday by Argentinean TV channel TyC Sports and repeated in the Spanish media, explaining that Messi has sent a registered fax to the club highlighting a clause which allows him to unilaterally rescind his contract at the end of this season.

8月25日，阿根廷TyC體育臺最先爆出這則消息，隨後西班牙媒體也報道了此事，並稱梅西已通過傳真通知俱樂部，希望通過合同中的賽季末單方面解約條款來解除合同。

The Barcelona based "El Mundo Deportivo" newspaper reported that the club has indeed received a fax from Messi but that the clause allowing him to walk away for free expired on June 10.

據總部位於巴塞羅那的《西班牙世界體育報》報道，巴塞羅那俱樂部證實收到了梅西的傳真，但能讓梅西免費與俱樂部解除合同的條款已於6月10日過期。

However, the striker believes that this is irrelevant because Barca's campaign only ended on Aug 14 following their 8-2 elimination from the Champions League by Bayern Munich.

然而梅西認爲這無關緊要，因爲巴薩本賽季最後一場比賽是在8月14日，那天巴塞羅那隊在歐冠四分之一決賽中2:8不敵拜仁慕尼黑隊。

The striker reportedly expressed doubts over his future at the Camp Nou, where he has been since arriving as a 13 year-old, making 731 appearances and scoring 634 goals for the club, in a recent telephone conversation with new coach Ronald Koeman.

據報道，在近日與球隊新主帥科曼的電話中，梅西對自己在諾坎普的未來表示疑慮。梅西13歲來到巴塞羅那，爲這家球隊總計出場731次，打進634球。
